Kane, the "evil priest" from Poltergeist 2! I think the reason is that it was his acting that made him frightening, and not so much special effects or makeup. It made him seem more realistic to me, which made him much more threatening. That scene where he tries to get the family to let him into the house... it makes my blood freeze.

When i was a kid, nothing scared me worse then Chucky from Child's Play.

Now i'd probably go with the guys from Hostel or similar people like that. Being captured and tortured to death sounds pretty terrible.

Chucky. I was exposed to that movie way too young and all of my friends dolls scared me. I've always been a small person and when I saw child's play the first time i was put sized by my size Barbie. Bit h got baricaded in the closet before bed at sleepovers ill tell you that. I think its burned into my psyche even now. Im almost hundred years old now I still have Chucky dreams and I realize it's totally illogical because I watch the movies and it's ridiculous but since I've been sleeping alone....im like f Chucky

The Creeper was the most scary horror movie character for me - and not in very young age. He shocked me twice, respectively in the original movie and in the sequel.

In the past it would have been Michael Myers or Freddy Kruger, now it would be some jack-ass with a rifle shooting up the movie theater I'm in.

The second part of your sentence sounds like the killer from Targets (1968), except that it was a drive-in, instead of a traditional theater. As for scariest villain, Freddy scared me when I was a kid, but today there really aren't that many that scare me today. Mainly because the type of movies that scare me are ghost, demonic possession, and alien (especially abduction). I was never really that scared of the movie The Exorcist. This does not mean that there aren't any older movies that did not scare me. The Haunting (1963), The House of Usher, The Amityville Horror, and The Changeling (1980) all scared me (or at least creeped me out pretty good and this was only a year or two ago). It is just that The Exorcist never did.

honestly i watched some fucked up movies from human centipede 1 & 2 all the way to some random thai horror flick that I watch with subtitles. honestly the most stupidest ones scared me like the clown from Stephen king's It and Samara from the ring when she reveals her face when she comes out of the TV I had to watch that movie like over a dozen times before I got the courage to even look at her face and then after when I did I like almost shit my pants :eek: !! :p

One of the first movies that I can vividly remember watching on home video was the original "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984). I was still a little kid, and I have no idea why my parents let me watch it.

I didn't sleep for weeks.
